Money 2003 Budget #s don't add up

Created a cash account and a checking account in Money
2003. Created a scheduled deposit transaction for the cas
account and two for the checking account. Entered these
transactions into the respective accounts for the current
month of november. Then created a budget. It included
these deposits and some of the expenses.

When "reviewing" current budget status for the current
month, some transactions are not shown in the budgeted
column. For example, the budget was created with 3 monthly
scheduled catagorized deposits, 1 into the cash account
and 2 in the checking. Each account currently has 1 of
these entries in it. The cash accnt entry is lised
under "Budgeted" for the current month but not the
checking accnt deposits. Both accnts are checked for
inclusion of budgeting. The "actual" column shows all 3
deposits from both accounts. Most of the expenses are
shown but a few (e.g. rent) are now shown in budgeted
column.

Why are their transactions/items not showing up in the
budget report? Here is another twist, view of "next month"
shows a budget of twice the normal month's deposited
income ???

IN case others come across the same problem. The issue
was that I had created the budget in the middle of the
month. Scheduled transactions which had already been
entered for the month and were now scheduled for their
next occurence until the next month, do not show in the
budget. 2 solutions, 1: create one time additions to the
budget for schduled items that have already occured or 2:
play with the system date - temporarily. Be careful with
soution #2 and don't forget to change it back.
